Weird impressions
It has been a weird experience. On one hand this is considered to be a unique-style hotel, but certain details were not to my taste. Positives: the breakfast room on the 9th floor - excellent views, ok food and service. The Jintu Asian restaurant on the ground floor - top notch. The pool and sauna area - ok, but the steam sauna was steamless. Negatives: my room was on the 1st floor among the conference rooms. Street view was nothing to enjoy. Door-type window blinds was the most strange thing I’ve ever seen. The shower door leaked water out onto the bathroom floor and I always had to use a big towel to collect it. The water pressure is simply to high. The most dissapointing was that the room didn’t look modern - had no USB pirts, chargibg stations and TV was difficult to manage with just a few programs really working. My conclusion - not worth its high price.

Very nice hotel but beware of houskeeping
Very cool adn cpmfortable boutique hotel in a an excellent downtown location. Amazing rooftoop restaurant and bar with some of teh best views in town and an excellent cusine. I would have given the full marks for service except for teh fact that once again a cleaning lady from housekeeping stormed into teh room catching me in my birthday suit, seems to be a common theam in many hotels.

Beautiful hotel, great area, service needs work
This hotel was a great value because it was beautiful and in a great location. My room was huge and luxurious. Breakfast was really good if relatively limited choices. My only complaint was the service. They were pleasant at check-in, but they gave me a room on the 8th floor. When I mentioned that all the reviews said not to get a room on an upper floor because the noise from the rooftop bar, they accommodated me, but identified me as “noise-sensitive”. Bigger problem was that reception said I would not need a reservation for the rooftop bar after 11:00 PM (which admittedly I though was odd for a Saturday night if it was such a local hotspot). So I went to dinner, and when I came back around midnight, I went up to the bar and it was heaving, of course. The hostess was borderline rude, and had me sit at a table outside of the main bar area. After waiting for 10 minutes with no further attention, I went back up to the hostess station and asked if I could order a drink, and she begrudgingly took my order and then delivered the drink a couple minutes later. As I was finishing my cocktail and getting ready to leave, she came up and told me they had a place at the bar for me and when I declined, she seemed a little annoyed with me. Check out was also a little clunky, because even with a deposit on file, which more than covered my charges, they ran another charge on my credit card, which made me a little uneasy and honestly, the explanation was not very clear.

Staff is great and are willing to help. The hotel is located in a perfect location overlooking great sights and close to everything. However, be prepared to hear loud music until midnight since the bar is on the top floor. We were in a suite and could not sleep until they closed the bar. Additionally, the pool is only available for one hour a day for kids under 14. Not a family hotel.
